revisions of the same product, but with different architectures, exist during
the postinstall phase of the update and the 11.31 revision removes an
obsolete bundle wrapper. The internal error was generated when the function
could not identify the revision to update. SD has been modified to also use
the architecture setting to uniquely identify the two revisions.
VRTSdbms3 ERRORs found in an OE update due to to a difference in real
gid and effective gid during system startup. SD has been changed so that

when the effective uid is root and the real uid is root, the real gid is set to
match the effective gid. This is done so that both the gid and egid match
root's group defined in /etc/passwd. This was previously only done by
swagentd, but it is also now done so that commands like swlist and
directly-called swagent run with the same value for both ids.
Support the NGROUPS expansion to allow more than 20 groups. SD has
been modified to use sysconf(2) to determine the maximum number of groups
supported by the system instead of using the NGROUPS_MAX define.

DescriptionDefect ID
Problem with swagentd.QXCR1000559362/JAGaf91103
The file_permissions line is not parsed correctly for numeric owner/group in
psf. Now, if there are two values, the first is treated as a NAME, the second
QXCR1000590006/JAGag45579
as an ID. If there is only one value and it is totally numeric that value is treated
as an ID else that value is treated as a NAME.
When swinstall skips installation of a patch because the target of the patch
was excluded during analysis, a useful message is written to swagent.log
QXCR1000591911/JAGag47873
but a non-informative message is issued by swinstall. Swinstall is fixed to
issue a more descriptive message in this situation.
The new command "swfixrealm" updates default_realm in SD ACL files.QXCR1000739295
SD commands invoked by drd runcmd cannot access directory depot in the
active root. This is partially fixed in SD, enabling a workaround for DRD
users. Please see DRD release notes for details of the workaround.
